@lungdart companies hiring foreign workers do care about them though.
-
Just shows how fragile life truly is, I still don't understand it's purpose tbh but whatever, just breathe air I guess.
-
@lungdart No not really, and my job does not require me to travel, but actually I needed this trip to get training and at the same time I did not travel abroad for 5 years due to the currency crisis and increased cost of living, my manager had also planned to bring everyone from other countries in order to meet me, feels awful just thinking about all this..
-
@electrineer Exactly, and for two reasons
1- My status will be on unpaid leave for 1 year and the military does not pay me shit
2-I am the only dev on my team, so I am sure they will have to replace me, I love the job and the people and just can't let that happen -
@azuredivay No as they have their own military doctors, I'm not going to harm myself or cut my fingers to get exempt, that's just sadistic
The only sensical way is to try and gain enough weight to become unfit for service, I am actually trying that right now but until now I am unfortunately losing instead because of my emotional state but I will try to keep at it. -
@electrineer @kiki Egypt, I had temporary exemption then totally forgot about it as you hand this paper to HR, topic only came back during the preparation for my trip.

@jestdotty Keep the insults coming poutine baby
-
@jestdotty Lol are you serious? how is having medicine worse than having none? and if your medication is not at all effective how come we rely on it for our treatments?
Also pretty sure your grandad was making MUCH higher than the average income in that country, if I made millions where I live then sure, even if the conversion rate is bad I would be able to live comfortably, but that's not the case for 99% of people. -
@jestdotty It's VERY different, you have much higher stability, if something happens to you like losing your job, your government will support you, we import medicine made BY first world nations, you have a stable currency, you are not at the risk of war, need I say more?
-
@aviophille My country is so fucked right now, can't even buy the fucking medication I take because it's imported and we ran out of dollars, everything is super expensive, I keep making less and less effective money because the real price of USD in the black market is soaring so I can't even protect the value of my own money anymore, and here you have the fucking white and white wannabes acting like this world is their fucking playground why we can barely make ends meet, I wish I was never fucking born, why should someone endure such hardships? we all have one life, it's not like I get to fucking choose my spawn location, fuck this planet.

Slave wage, going back to an empty home, wish for a cuddle buddy in this frigid cold, sleep, rinse and repeat :)
-
@Jabb03 Da fuck, dude must've been high
-
@b2plane My goddamn parents worked at airline company and did not think about giving birth to me in the US or a goddamn European country, have been paying for their mistake ever since, fuck this shit.
-
@b2plane Lol ur from Serbia? u can easily find a job in Germany or any other european country, you can go to any eu country visa free for 3 months, check your priviledge damn it!
-
@aviophille Just because you earn slave wage does not mean things are cheap. plus there's "official" bank rates for foreign currency and there's the true "black market" rates. I earn around 690$ if you convert my salary to the official rate, true rate though....a measily 382$ because there's no other way to buy USD.
Home prices vary, on average if you want a proper home in a decent location it's no less than 40-48k USD
Anyways enough with this shit, you either get me a passport or pay for my Bulgarian gypsy. -
@aviophille Then you should pay for my eu passport
-
@b2plane I make much less than 1300$ a month, wanna do like the movie faceoff?
-
You make $8.125 an hour? you lucky son of a bitch.

2- Translate my cv to French and apply to jobs in the first world priviledged nations of France and Belgium etc, so I can be a spoiled holiday taking, alcohol drinking motherfucker
3- Work on my physical and emtional health -

@MammaNeedHummus I am mad at my failing government but there's nothing I can do about it, if you were in my shoes you'd understand where I'm coming from, luckily for you you don't have to.
